Hmm, which particular device did you see it crash on? These functions are only called with 'def' straight out of the virDomainDefPtr struct, (eg, vm->def->disks[INDEX]) and those are all supposed to be non-NULL at all times. So if one is NULL then I've introduced a bug somewhere else ! I guess most likely in the new controllers code.
